It's been very warm here

We found this poor turtle crossing the main entrance road and had to move him as there is still a mind set of if it's on the road flatten it.

Two days in the 80's and all the Alligators are coming out of their dens.

Young Ibis landing on the Moist Soil Unit on the Skiller Tract of the Refuge.

Lauren had a really close encounter with this Bobcat while taking a few pictures of some ducks . Almost stepped on her tail if she had one..

lots of turtles coming up out of their holes as we are in the middle of a mini heat wave .

The Refuge was very fortunate enough to purchase a large tract along the entrance road so we are putting up the Blue Goose signs .

Meet this Gator in a very small ditch pond along side of the road by one of the new sign posts. He was just getting warmed up.
